The CWSA Podcast: S1E18: Jackie Stiles, 2001 CWSA Award Winner

Basketball player Jackie Stiles held the scoring record in the NCAA for about 16 years. Her story begins in the small town of Chaflin, KS where Jackie was a four sport high school athlete holding numerous track and field state titles. It was her love of basketball that took the shooting guard to college and onto the international court, to the WNBA and now a coaching career. Jackie credits her teammates, coaches and her family and community support and love for her success. After taking the Southwest Missouri State University (now known as Missouri State University ) basketball team to the NCAA Final Fours (scoring 41 points in win against Duke ) she was awarded the 2001 Honda Cup and was drafted by the pros. Jackie talks about her biggest challenges at that level and the unintended consequences of her signature work ethic and overtraining. She only wishes she would have known back then how to better take care of her body. Though she believes in the power of the mind, her injuries eventually caught up with her leaving her to claim an identity other than as a basketball player. Jackie talks about having lived her life backwards with new found experiences and joys outside the gymnasium. She knows it was the support of those around her that made her dreams comes true and consequently she is committed to helping others by giving back to the sport, which makes her a successful Assistant Coach at University of Oklahoma.
